Embark on an unforgettable 3-4 hour adventure in the Atlantic Ocean and experience one of the most exciting activities in the Azores: whale and dolphin watching. This tour offers the chance to encounter some of the most magnificent marine creatures in their natural habitat, guided by marine biologists and expert instructors who provide insights into the Azorean marine ecosystem. Depending on the season, you may see resident species like sperm whales, bottlenose dolphins, Risso's dolphins, and common dolphins, or even seasonal visitors such as blue whales. Participants can choose between two types of boats: a high-speed Zodiac/RIB boat for an exhilarating, close-up experience, or a catamaran for a more comfortable and stable ride, allowing plenty of space to enjoy the scenery while watching the animals.
The tour concludes with a visit to the islet of Vila Franca do Campo, a stunning ancient volcanic crater and protected nature reserve, perfect for photography and admiring the unique rock formations. This final stop adds a scenic and educational element to the experience, allowing you to capture postcard-perfect memories of the Azores. Life jackets, experienced guides, changing rooms, and a sighting guarantee policy are included to ensure safety and satisfaction. Guests are advised to bring sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, water, and snacks, as well as clothing and footwear suitable for sun, wind, and occasional splashes of water. The tour may be adjusted based on marine life activity, weather conditions, and other safety considerations, ensuring a safe and memorable encounter with the spectacular wildlife of the Azores.
